Prepare a clear HGV freight brief
Give carriers enough information to assess the collection, delivery and vehicle fit before they apply for your load.
- Include the collection and delivery locations, dates and time windows.
- Describe the goods, weight, dimensions and any loading or unloading requirements.
- Specify the required HGV or trailer type and site access instructions.
Assess the carrier against the job
Compare each application with the requirements of your freight. A suitable vehicle is only one part of the decision.
- Review the carrier profile and the documents available to you.
- Check that capacity, collection timing and delivery requirements are understood.
- Confirm the scope, price and payment terms before agreeing the job.
Keep delivery progress and evidence connected
Use the agreed job as the reference for operational messages and delivery evidence, so the people involved can understand what happened.
- Keep collection updates, delays and changes with the job conversation.
- Record delivery confirmation and the available proof of delivery (POD).
- Check that the evidence relates to the correct job and clarify any discrepancies.
